Geoff Cox, better known as “Coxy”, is a star of radio and television, and former drummer in The Bootleg Family, Avalanche and Little River Band.
His life in the entertainment industry started out playing drums six nights a week in Rock and Roll Bands, fast becoming one of the top session drummers in Australia, playing on 20+ gold albums.
During the 70’s Coxy toured the world with the likes of Russell Morris, the Bee Gees, and Cliff Richard. He also played in Las Vegas for several international artists throughout his career.
From 1979 until 1987 Coxy ran The Roxy, an iconic Rock and Roll pub in Melbourne. The catchcry “Coxy from the Roxy” in his raspy, Aussie voice on radio ads became legendary.
One of his earliest TV appearances was on Countdown, in a short documentary which led viewers through the process of making Australian Crawl's music single, "Beautiful People". Coxy later went on to become a presenter himself on Channel 9’s Postcards, and Coxy’s Big Break on Channel 7.
Coxy’s radio career started on the Smithy and Cox Show on 3DB, before he joined forces with our very own Gavin Wood for the Gavin and Coxy Breakfast Show on 3TT and TTFM. He then went on to host Juke Box Saturday nights with Coxy on 3MP for the next decade and he can still be heard on ads, as a guest, or giving interviews.
